President Muhammadu Buhari has condemned the communal violence in Kasuwan Magani in Kaduna State which claimed over 55 lives.
In a statement released by his Senior Special Assistant on Media and Publicity, Garba Shehu on Saturday, the President said the frequent resort to bloodshed by Nigerians over misunderstandings that can be resolved peacefully was disturbing.
The President said “No culture and religion support the disregard for the sanctity of life. Peaceful coexistence is necessary for the progress of any society and its wellbeing.” said.
President Buhari added that without communal harmony, the environment for the conduct of “our everyday businesses would be impossible to achieve.”
The President noted that “violence cannot be an alternative to peace. On the contrary, reliance on violence leads to ultimate self-destruction. Violence is an ill wind that blows nobody any good. Embracing peace is a necessity.”
He appealed to the people to develop the spirit of tolerance and patience at all times.
